Loved the Property!

The place is adorable and very comfortable. Things we especially appreciated were the super cute and tasteful decor, the fully stocked coffee bar (including travel cups & lids!), the front & back porch areas, location (lovely wooded winding drive leading to the property), and the FAST response from the host any time we had a question. I should also add the place was spotless. We fully enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to come back!

I had a 3 day conference at the Belterra but the Belterra was full! I booked the Blue Door and it worked great. Simple, clean, and comfortable!

The house was fine, overall. Beds and pillows were fine for one night - I would suggest bringing your own pillow if staying longer. Unfortunately, the air mattress we requested wasn't out and there were no sheets/pillows to use for it. Also, we were told there was coffee provided, but there were only 2 k-cups for three adults. I would have brought my own, if I had been aware. The creamer provided is expired, as well.

Hi Kristin! The two air mattresses available to use are easily accessible. There are tons of extra sheets, pillows & pillow cases that are also easily accessible. Will talk to the cleaners about not stocking the coffee. Thanks for your stay!
